#191 - Lyn, Jan & Him (West Brompton, London, English)

Back in 1962, Flat D on the ground floor of 60 Redcliffe Square was a one-roomed lodging which was once the home and workplace of Lyn Bain & Jan Blake - two ladies with too many secrets. Given the era, they disguised their illegal lesbian relationship as merely a tempestuous friendship, but it would be a single incident over a few drinks, a card game and a bit of telly, which would end it all.The evidence states that Thursday 14th September 1962 was a seemingly quiet night in Lyn & Jan. And yet, something caused them to argue and fight, for a knife to cut flesh and for a cover-up to erase what happened that night. With a secret so big, wrong, dark or strange, it left one woman in the prison, the other in the morgue and both taking their unspoken motive to the grave. But what was this secret? Date: Friday 14th September 1962 at roughly 8am (stabbing)Location: Flat D, 60 Redcliffe Square, West Brompton, London, England, SW10Victims: 1 (Jeanette Doreen McVitie, known as Jan)Culprits: 1 (Marilyn Anne Bain, known as Lyn)Keywords: love triangle, jealousy, beating, Blog - https://www.murdermiletours.com/blog/murder-mile-uk-true-crime-podcast-191-lyn-jan-and-himMurder Mile is researched, written and performed by Michael of Murder Mile Walks with the main musical themes written and performed by Erik Stein and Jon Boux of Cult With No Name and additional music, as used under the Creative Commons License 4.0.
